Watford’s interim manager, Tom Cleverly has expressed satisfaction with the contributions of Emmanuel Dennis since his return to the club.

Dennis, who has found the back of the net four times in six starts, is proving to be a valuable asset to the EFL Championship side.

With an impressive work rate, Dennis has cemented his place in the team, starting each of their last six games.

Manager Tom Cleverly has been quick to praise the Attacker for his outstanding performances, recognizing the Nigerian’s growing importance to the team.

“We know that Dennis has got that explosive burst. As a defender, you can think you’re comfortable on the ball, and then he appears from nowhere,” Cleverly said.

“We said to the players we thought we would create chances through high regains. We didn’t win as many as I’d like but the one that mattered went in.

“He’s been nursing a small groin issue, so it was always in my mind that he wouldn’t complete the game. He’s done well to get to an hour and score the winning goal.”
